    I can't handle most fast food these days. I can't believe that I used to live on Taco Bell and Burger King in my late teens and very early twenties. When I was pregnant with my first I finally gave into a soft taco craving from Taco Bell, I took one bite and haven't been back since.. that was almost 5 years ago.
  • My parents raised me to drink whole milk and even sometimes we would get milk straight from a farm down the road. My parents both became diabetic and we all switched to skim milk. I now live with my boyfriend and he is lactose intolerant so he rarely drinks milk and if he does it's skim so I am very used to it now. I tried to drink 2% the other day and could not even stomach it because it felt too thick and fatty.

    I love skim milk now!

    Since I started on this new life I promised myself when I hit 20 pound loss I would treat myself to a frisch's big boy! Before I would stop in once a week and have a big boy and fries. So I was so excited to get to finally have my treat! I ate less than half of it and realized it was sitting like a rock in my stomach.

    I also feel the same about mac and cheese, mcdonald's and pop! Haven't had a pepsi in 7 weeks, a diet pepsi in 6 weeks and just last night had some gingerale to calm my stomach....it didn't work either until I drank some water....I don't even crave these things anymore either! I will take a grilled chicken breast anyday!

    A few years ago my Aunt made this really great pepper slaw. I remember eating tons of it because I was on the Atkins diet at the time. I ate so much of it, now when I see it, I feel ill.*LOL*

    There's nothing I really don't like anymore, just things that my stomach doesn't tolerate as well, or at least doesn't tolerate a large amount of it.
    Anything deep fried/most fast foods - I can handle a very small amount, but my stomach really doesn't feel well after a "normal" serving. It's like it's just sitting there - maybe I've become more attuned to how I actually feel after these foods?
    With sweets, it's not as bad (other than with fried sweets - like donuts). I can eat a small piece of home made pie or coffeecake and not have a problem.

    Fizzy juice. I remember I used to drink it regularly and I soon began to cut down and change to diet varieties and then eventually not drink it at all. I rarely drink it now, but from time to time I allow myself to have one glass of diet pepsi / pepsi max if out for a meal with water, but when I drink that one I feel so bloated and gassy, I can't imagine how I coped when I drank it before!

    Also if I smell anything greasy it really makes me feel queasy.

    I certainly can't eat as much as I used to, I've had big meals but my appetite has reduced so I struggle to eat like that, I like my smaller portions!

    Chocolate makes my teeth hurt, so I don't eat very much of it and don't miss it either.
    I'm with everyone else on the chinese takeaway - used to love eating it, but now I'm noticing how salty it is. That'll be the MSG probably.
    I've also cut down from one sugar in my tea to half a sugar, and it's amazing how quickly I got used to half a sugar. I made myself a cuppa in a rush the other day, with a big sugar, and was pulling faces all the way through it. (I coulda thrown it away, but I didn't want to waste the tea bag)

    Like other people I can only drink skim milk now, whole fat milk just tastes like cream to me.

    I also don't like white bread anymore, it has no flavour. Other day I thought I'd treat myself to some white bread french toast when I was out for brunch, after two bites I really regretted not getting the brown bread.

    Anything fatty or greasy makes me have stomachache for hours... I have stopped eating any fatty food but still I like some.
    I think i have problem digesting fat!

    Half-gallon ice cream...at least, any kind where the base is vanilla. For some reason, that kind of ice cream just tastes gritty and over-processessed...give me a 40-calorie fudge pop any day!
  • I <3 Hula Hoops :( but I wish I didn't. Now I look a them and they say 'eat me, eat me' and I'm left looking at them saying no, no, no... sigh. i'd rather I thought they tasted icky.

    There's nothing I don't really like any more but then I don't think my diet was really that bad before I started trying to lose weight, I just ate too much.

    I can't eat white bread, pasta or cake any more. I have tried, and all three make me throw up. Come to think of it, that might be the wheat! I had a ciabatta toastie for lunch today as there wasn't anything else vegetarian in the cafe, and I have felt absolutely vile all day since. I can't eat much potato any more either. I can manage about 4 bites then I get nauseous.
  • Anything containing meat, fish, poultry, meat by-products inc gelatine, cheese, eggs, animal fats, cow or goat milk, also milk chocolate ... used to eat all this stuff once but gradually eliminated it over the course of about nine years.

    Never thought I'd go down this route and change my diet so radically, never thought I had an ounce of willpower to give up all those much-loved treats like cheese on toast or Haribo and Cadburys sweets.

    Still can't believe I don't actually miss or crave those things but my tastes have changed somehow and now my treats are things like dark chocolate or carob bars, Raspberry Ruffle bars, Panda liquorice, American Hard Gums, Swedish Glace frozen desserts and loads of home-made scrummy treats ... spend a lot more time cooking tho.

    I have not lost my taste for any 'unhealthy' foods because frankly, I never stopped eating them. I'm on team "Everything in Moderation". I will always like cookies and cheeseburgers and pizza. :-)

    here here!

    I'm the same way! No point in giving up the things I love when I can enjoy them if it fits into my macros :)

    bananas!
    ever since i realised how many calories in one banana, i find it hard to buy it whenever i go for my weekly food shopping.

    Not all calories are equal though. Bananas are a great source of nutrients like potassium and fibre and have no fat in them. They are easy to eat in smoothies, on cereal or just as is. They are a very good form of energy so don't worry about the calorie count in them.

    i know all you said above is correct but i still find it hard to pick it up in the supermarket when there are other fruits with less calories to chose from. back in the day, sometimes i use to have 2 bananas in one go lol. it's all about me convincing myself of the other benefits :-)

    I feel the same way about McDonald's. I hadn't gone there for at least 4 months, and I went last week with my coworkers. I ate it. It smelled great (crispy warm french fries and crispy ranch snack wraps) but I didn't get the same thrill after eating it. I even had a stomach ache afterwards. No more McDonald's for me!


    YES!!! I had a busy day yesterday, so we just picked up some McDonald's for dinner. I got Chicken Nuggets - not even the big order - a Kid's Meal. My mouth liked it, but my entire body, especially my stomach, has been hating it ever since. My mouth has been warned. :laugh:

    i only go to mcdonalds abt once a year (as a last resort). whenever i go i always have the mcnuggets meal though. i try to stay away from alot of these fast foods even before i started calorie count as they normally give me wind lol

    Bananas are quick to grab on the way out the door (for the busy person) and are a whole lot better than McDonalds or a candy bar, when you're out running errands and hungry. Yes they are higher in cals, but darn yummy when you are craving something sweet. **doing Chitiqua banana dance**
  • Fast food! When we're on the go and have to get it I dread it because it's just not the same. But hey I'm okay with it. Less money I spend and more weight I lose!
  • I've been changing my diet over the past year or so - first cutting out high GI foods and now Calorie counting.
    Soft drink and fruit juice, white bread, high gi rice and pasta, and potatoes went out last year)

    Generally I have a problem with high GI foods - I notice the sugar rush and I know it's bad.

    I'm in Australia and our Bananas are really expensive this year ( we don't import Bananas and we had really bad weather in our banana growing regions) - I got given some a couple of weeks ago and I've just forgotten to use them. They are full of nutrients but I try to be smart when I have them.... they are a breakfast thing.

    I've only just started calorie counting and I have to say I'm shocked a bit by some foods. - ( vegetable gyozas are so high in calories - how?). I wonder if I will ever be able to look at some foods and think I don't like them for their calorie content alone

    It's not a food, it's a beverage, but I used to down at least 32oz of mountain dew a day....now I think it tastes awful!

    I used to drink 2-3 a day. I had some last night it it tasted disgusting to me. That was an addiction I thought I'd never break!!

    The Dairy Queen Mocha Moolatte. I love that thing, but I used to get the large and his has something ridiculous like 600 or more calories.

    As far as no longer liking the taste, no, I still like everything.

    Most greasy foods...it's not that i don't like the taste, but they really seem to hurt my chest and sometimes make me feel lethargic afterwards. It's pretty good though, it makes them appeal so much less to me! =)
